In the next few days, Duan Yun's product technology research and development center has been on the right track, these five retired professors are either in the workshop to check the equipment, or in the office to draw, and at night to get together for a meeting to discuss, the new product research and development work is advancing rapidly.

After Li Guosheng issued a recruitment notice in Guangzhou, he soon heard back, and seventy or eighty people came to apply for jobs in the product technology research and development institute.

Most of these applicants are mainly middle-aged, almost all of them are some technicians in former state-owned enterprises, and there are technical schools, technical secondary schools, and high schools with academic qualifications, but there are no talents with university degrees.

However, after Duan Yun's rounds of interviews and screening, only eight people were left in the end, basically all of them were secondary school students, and to Duan Yun's surprise, most of these applicants were technicians from state-owned enterprises in Northeast China.

Before the 80s, the Northeast is undoubtedly China's heavy industry base, and at this time there is not much decent heavy industry in the south, the Soviet Union aided China in 156 major projects, aid to the Northeast accounted for 110, it can be said that the Northeast was the most developed region in the country at that time, and the south here only some textile light industry can be handled, but far from being comparable with the Northeast heavy industry base.

However, with the reform and opening up, the coastal cities have gradually become the center of gravity of the domestic economy, and this situation has undergone a huge change, because the location is unfavorable, so in the early stage of opening up, there is no preemptive realization of primitive accumulation, and the subsequent industrial transfer is also called the industrial transfer of the first rich area of Nancheng Street.

The second is that there is too much blood loss during the planned economy period, and the contribution of the Northeast region to the whole country has been very huge, and the state has drawn a large amount of tax revenue from it, and has also mobilized various resources, manpower and equipment from the Northeast to support all parts of the country, which has led to the rapid loss of wealth in the Northeast region.

In the mid-80s, the income of workers in the northeast state-owned enterprises gradually widened the gap with the south, although most of the state-owned enterprises can still be maintained, but they have long since lost the scenery of the past, low income, poor treatment, resulting in a large number of highly educated and high-tech talents left in the south.

Many of these talents who stayed in the south were hired by private enterprises, bringing the most urgently needed product technology to these private enterprises and invigorating many private enterprises.

Duan Yun passed the interview this time, several people are from state-owned enterprises, and they are basically around thirty or forty years old, which is the best time for young people to be strong, experienced and social, and Duan Yun can be regarded as picking up a treasure.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the reason why Duan Yun was able to recruit so many people smoothly was mainly because the salary he offered was relatively high in Shenzhen, not as good as those Sino-foreign joint ventures, but definitely much better than the state-owned enterprises and other private enterprises in Shenzhen.

"Manager Duan, three more people came to apply this time, and we have recruited 8 more now, do we still need to recruit more?"

"Yes!" Duan Yun replied very simply, and then said: "Our company's recruitment must be carried out forever, and the salary can be increased a little more......"

"It's still improving, I feel that the salary we offer is already very high...... Li Guosheng said in surprise.

"It's far away, how many people are there?" Duan Yun shook his head with a smile, and then said: " In order to engage in product research and development, I spent so much money to build a building to buy equipment, these wages are not a thing at all, as long as it is a really useful talent, how much I want to have, now there are more and more highly educated talents in Shenzhen, it is also an opportunity for us, I give a high salary price, but it does not mean that anyone is eligible to get such treatment, the initiative is still in our hands, high salary is just a bait, so that people with the ability will give priority to our company to apply, other companies can only choose us to pick the rest of the people, and I will establish an assessment system in the future, people who are not good at work I will fire them at any time, in this wayThe best talents here in Shenzhen will slowly come to our company, which will greatly improve the product research and development capabilities of our factory......"

"But I don't think we need to recruit so many technicians...... Li Guosheng said with a frown.

In Li Guosheng's view, now the product research and development center has 5 retired professors in charge, and there are more than a dozen technical personnel to assist, for a small factory with only more than 200 people, such a technical lineup is strong enough, usually speaking, this size of a small factory only needs to have three or four technicians, there is no need to recruit more highly educated talents with high salaries.

"Master Li, don't you still understand?" a wry smile flashed on Duan Yun's face, and he continued: " Whether it is a machinery factory or an electronics factory, we all rely on technology to start, can develop a good product, far more important than expanding one or two production lines, production capacity is not enough, I can find other manufacturers OEM, but if you do not have your own good products, good technology, then you can only follow others to drink soup, and may not be able to drink, so we want to be bigger and stronger in Shenzhen, then we must take the route of technology-based enterprises, we want to be upstream enterprises, relying on the expansion of production scale and recruiting a large number of workers are outdated strategies, in the end can only be reduced to other manufacturers' foundries, so you must change your original concept。 ”

"I see what you mean. Li Guosheng nodded in response.

"I specially wrote two papers, used to assess the technical personnel who are applying for the job, you take a few more copies, if I am not here in Guangzhou, you will take this exam paper when you interview these candidates for them to fill in, if the resume is better, you can appropriately reduce the admission score, not more than 50, even if they have the ability, the energy may not be able to keep up, and the rest are admitted according to the score. As Duan Yun spoke, he put a written test paper in front of Li Guosheng.

"I'm going to make a copy. Seeing this, Li Guosheng picked up the time and left the office.

After seeing Li Guosheng leave, Duan Yun took out a brand-new imported Sony Walkman from his bag, took out a screwdriver from the drawer, and prepared to disassemble it.

This Sony Walkman is a new product just released in Japan, and it is not currently sold in China, it is all smuggled from Hong Kong, and the appearance is very exquisite, and it feels a little thick in the hand.

The research and development of domestic walkmans has always been Duan Yun's goal, and now after the establishment of the product research and development center, the conditions for Duan Yun's research and development have begun to mature......
